Gary Reeves

Navajo silversmith Gary Reeves was born in 1962 in Gallup, N.M. and died July 2014. He began silver work in 1974.

He was the older brother of renowned silversmith Sunshine Reeves and the younger brother of David Reeves (now deceased), who was so instrumental in teaching the craft to both Gary and Sunshine, as well as their half-brothers Darrel and Andy Cadman.

While each artist has his own individual style, they all share an affinity for complex engraved and hand stamped geometric designs and they are all a part of recreating and popularizing the old Navajo designs of the early 20th century. They call their style Navajo Revival Style.

He filled his old style silver with lots of stamp patterns and used high quality pieces of turquoise. Gary smithed silver from the age of twelve. His work, like that of his brother Sunshine, is present in the collections of the Heard Museum in Phoenix and Gary has won numerous awards for his work.
